Mahama condemns insults during public discourse

President John Dramani Mahama has spoken out against the insults that have taken over a better part of public discourse in the country and urged religious organisations to devote time to fight them.

He said the impunity with which some people disrespected and rained insults on their leaders and the elderly was unGhanaian and expressed concern that that was happening in a country considered the most religious in the world.

President Mahama stated this when he joined the Saviour Church of Ghana at its annual convention at its headquarters at Osiem in the Eastern Region last Saturday.

The congregation, in their thousands, used the convention, which marked the 91st anniversary of the establishment of the church, to, among other things, pray for the prosperity of the nation.
